We are very excited about Robotech® The New Generation™ Sourcebook, especially that it offers the ability to play mecha and O.C.C.s from ALL eras of Robotech® in one setting against the Invid. Just think about the possibilities of Veritech Fighters, Destroids, Battloids, Hover Tanks, Cyclones, and “Frankenmecha” – giant robots combined with the limbs, weapons and body parts of two or more mecha – all working together to stop a common enemy. Epic. Plus, there is more information about the Invid, rules for creating Frankenmecha, vehicle combat and crash damage as well as stats and descriptions for new weapons, new vehicles, seven new O.C.C.s (including Invid Genetics and Cyborg Experiments, Invid Princes and Princesses and Resistance Fighter O.C.C.s), key characters from the TV show, world overview, great art and more. Ships December 2.
